Could an attack happen while Bush is on vacation?
Or was it clear that NO ATTACKS OCCUR WHILE BSUH IS IN CRAWFORD! JUst curious, I mean Bush takes such a long vaction,wouldn't that be a good time to attack if you were part of Al-Queda? What would freepers say if this happened? Just asking.

1. Doubtful
It would require Bush to cut his vacation short. The people who plan these things wouldn't dare do something like that.

2. I suppose your right
By the way, did Clinton ever take a month long vacation? How long was he in office before he took a REAL vacation? Anybody?

5. Every summer
the Clintons took one week off and would stay with 'friends'. The Clintons only residence during their 8 year term was the WH and Camp David.

The Clinton team was full of workaholics, which was not well received in DC, where the career types were much more use to banker's hours. The attitude was that Clinton would only last 4 years and then their lives would go back to normal.

4. Too soon...
Too much time for fear to turn into anger at Bushes 2x failure to protect the US. If they're going to do it, look to within 3 months of the election.
